We study the orbit structure and the geometric quantization of a pair of mutually commuting hamiltonian actions on a symplectic manifold. If the pair of actions fulfils a symplectic Howe condition, we show that there is a canonical…

We study the cohomology $H^*_{\lambda \omega}(G/\Gamma, {\mathbb C})$ of the deRham complex $\Lambda^*(G/\Gamma)\otimes{\mathbb C}$ of a compact solvmanifold $G/\Gamma$ with a deformed differential $d_{\lambda \omega}=d + \lambda\omega$,…

Given a Lagrangian submanifold $L$ in a symplectic manifold $X$, the homological Lagrangian monodromy group $\mathcal{H}_L$ describes how Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of $X$ preserving $L$ setwise act on $H_*(L)$. We begin a systematic study…

Let M be a compact simply connected hyperk\"ahler (or holomorphically symplectic) manifold, \dim H^2(M)=n. Assume that M is not a product of hyperkaehler manifolds. We prove that the Lie algebra so(n-3,3) acts by automorphisms on the…

We geometrically construct a homology theory that generalizes the Euler characteristic mod 2 to objects in the unoriented cobordism ring N_*(X) of a topological space X. This homology theory Eh_* has coefficients Z/2 in every nonnegative…

We give explicit computations of the $\Gamma$-Euler characteristic of several families of orbit space definable translation groupoids. These include the translation groupoids associated to finite-dimensional linear representations of the…

Building on the recent determination of the simplicial cohomology groups of the convolution algebra ${\ell}^1({\mathbb Z}_+^k)$ [Gourdeau, Lykova, White, 2005] we investigate what can be said for cohomology of this algebra with more general…

In this note we introduce primitive cohomology groups of locally conformal symplectic manifolds $(M^{2n}, \omega, \theta)$. We study the relation between the primitive cohomology groups and the Lichnerowicz-Novikov cohomology groups of…

In this paper we study K-cosymplectic manifolds, i.e., smooth cosymplectic manifolds for which the Reeb field is Killing with respect to some Riemannian metric. These structures generalize coK\"ahler structures, in the same way as K-contact…

We introduce a generalization of Weinstein's morphism, defined on \pi_{2k-1}(Ham(M,\omega)) for 1 < k \leq n, where (M,\omega) is a 2n-dimensional symplectic manifold. Using this morphism, we show that for n > 1 and 1 < k \leq n, the…

In this paper the structures of the generalised Euler-Lagrange equations and their associated conserved quantities are derived for one-dimensional Herglotz variational problems of order $n$. Their derivations use the framework of moving…

For any natural numbers $k \leq n$, the rational cohomology ring of the space of continuous maps $S^{2k-1} \to S^{2n-1}$ (respectively, $S^{4k-1} \to S^{4n-1}$) equivariant under the Hopf action of the circle (respectively, of the group…

We show, by an elementary and explicit construction, that the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of certain symplectic manifolds, endowed with Hofer's metric, contains subgroups quasi-isometric to Euclidean spaces of arbitrary dimension.

We use group cohomology and the de Rham complex on simplicial manifolds to give explicit differential forms representing generators of the cohomology rings of moduli spaces of representations of fundamental groups of 2-manifolds. These…

In this paper we show that the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo method for compact Lie groups constructed in \cite{kennedy88b} using a symplectic structure can be recovered from canonical geometric mechanics with a bi-invariant metric. Hence we…

Let $c$ be a characteristic form of degree $k$ which is defined on a Kaehler manifold of real dimension $m>2k$. Taking the inner product with the Kaehler form $\Omega^k$ gives a scalar invariant which can be considered as a generalized…

We provide an angular parametrization of the special unitary group $\textrm{SU}(2^{n})$ generalizing Euler angles for $\textrm{SU}(2)$ by successively applying the KAK decomposition. We then determine constraint equations for the parametric…

Let $U_1, U_2$ be connected commutative unipotent algebraic groups defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ and let $\mathcal{L}$ be a bimultiplicative $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_\ell$-local system on $U_1\times…

This paper presents a complete symplectic classification of $A_k$ Hamiltonians on $\mathbb R^2$, in the analytic and smooth categories. Precisely, consider the pair $(H, \omega)$ consisting of a Hamiltonian and a symplectic structure on…

Given a symplectic cohomology class of degree 1, we define the notion of an equivariant Lagrangian submanifold. The Floer cohomology of equivariant Lagrangian submanifolds has a natural endomorphism, which induces a grading by generalized…
